Mikumi National Park is located at the northern border of Africa's largest game reserve, the Selous Game Reserve. It is crossed by a paved road, making it the most accessible area of the 75,000 square kilometers of wilderness that stretches almost to the Indian Ocean in the east.
The park is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including zebras, gnus, impalas, and herds of buffalo. Giraffes can often be seen feeding on acacia trees along the Mkata River. With a little luck, you may also see elands, kudus, and sable antelopes. The park is also home to over 400 species of birds, as well as hippos and elephants.
Mikumi National Park is a great place to go on a safari, and it is a great opportunity to see some of Africa's most iconic wildlife.
